The Psionicle, Part IX

[Jarval]

Jansson stands silent, glad to be out of the fight. After a few moments, he shakes his head and looks up at his companions.

"Thanks for the compliment, Ruth. You're pretty handy with a blade yourself." Jansson pats his tall friend on the lower back.

"How are you feeling?" He says to Tori'shel. "I was worried we might have lost you."

"And I see you also have new stuff. Did your stuff just appear the way ours did?" Jansson passes the wand and mace over to Osius for identification. "So, what's it all do? And is there anything useful in junk you've got?" He grins, poking at the little pile of items.

He winces briefly as Narok's healing spell takes effect, rubbing at the now closed wounds on his arms. "My thanks. Those squirrel's were tougher than they looked..."

Turning back to the main matter at hand, Jansson thinks briefly, before speaking. "If these Voices will help us travel, then let them take us to the library south of Garanasseur. And let us also take their advice and rest. Gods know, I've picked up a few hurts this night." He sits on the ground, observing Osius as he examines the mace and wand.

Osius

Osius relates the items already in the stash to Jannson...

"You think the Voice can send us to a place the location of which we're not certain about ourselves? It's probably better then starting over at Garannasseur itself, I suppose, though getting back might be a little more difficult without knowing how we got there in the first place." Osius's voice trailes off.

"How are you feeling? I was worried we might have lost you."

"Better." Tori'shel says simply, with a shrug. "Oh, and here's your dagger..." She hands it to Jansson.

Osius
"You think the Voice can send us to a place the location of which we're not certain about ourselves? It's probably better then starting over at Garannasseur itself, I suppose, though getting back might be a little more difficult without knowing how we got there in the first place."

"If we can give them general directions, using Garanasseur as a starting point," Shardorn says, "then we would probably end up within a day's travel of the library."

 

[Darkwolf]

"You're welcome for the healing. Wake me in a while and I'll take a watch."

Narok goes over next to his panther and curls up next to it and goes to sleep.

 

[The Forsaken One]

Krmz, I thought I spotted a shield in there...
With a bit of a blush, hardly spottable in the twilight Ruth sits down and releases the straps which hold her sword to her back.

I don't know if anyone minds to give me a hand to get out of this armor. I'd like to get some shuteye, I''m a bit exhausted from the bites and scratches.

Ruth looks at Shardorn and cracks a faint smile.

It's been a while since I've been in a fight, and it hurts like hell. Thanks for patching me up there. Well the tissue damage healed but I still feel the strain it inflected on me. So anyone wants to give me a hand?

 

[Dalamar]

"We'll have a good chance of getting to the library before Jirlai does, thanks to this new method of transportation."

 

[Zhure]

Osius

"Why don't we take the Voice's offer of teleportation now, and rest when we get there? That way we'll be out of their forest," Osius says.

... which I think I'll like more than they do.

 

[Jarval]

"Thanks." Jansson takes his dagger back from Tori'shel, before heading over to Ruth and helping her to unbuckle her armor.

"Things could have gone worse. I feared that some of us might not make it through the Tests, but happily we all still live. And I can work with either resting now or taking the offer of transportation and resting later. Take a vote if you wish, Osius."

 

[The Forsaken One]

After removing her helmet, gauntlets and way too damned and sweaty heavy boots, Ruth sits down with a clang of her armor as she hits some piece of rock sticking out from under the grass.

Damn.. another dent.... Euhm, but euh. I'm fine with taking the teleport but we don't know how hazardous the place will be where we arrive. And if there is trouble or this sorceror you spoke of. And not lightly may I note. I'd like us all to be in prime shape.

Ruth looks around at the rest whiel they take a sec to think.

And what was up with that Illithid stuff they were telling about? You don't seem to keen on them either...

"The only hazard that I can foresee," Shardorn says, "is Jirlai. The place around the library wasn't very lively... I doubt anything dangerous lives near it."

"And, I should mention that we don't really have any evidence that Jirlai is going to the library." She adds. "It would make sense for him to, but we don't really know if he is going there or not, so we might not even have to deal with him."
